Fort Washington Park is located in the Washington Heights section of Upper Manhattan, New York City, along the banks of the Hudson River next to Riverside Drive from West 155th Street to Dyckman Street. The George Washington Bridge crosses above the park, and below the bridge is the small point of land also called Jeffrey's Hook,[1] which is the site of the Little Red Lighthouse.

The 160-acre park features river-side views of the New Jersey Palisades and the George Washington Bridge. Amenities include pedestrian and greenway paths, baseball fields, basketball courts, tennis courts, volleyball courts, a soccer field and a playground.

The park references the nearby site of Fort Washington, a fortified position that was the site of the 1776 Battle of Fort Washington during the American Revolutionary War. The fort's actual location is located and commemorated in Bennett Park.
